It's about showing a person who knows you a certain way you aren't that way anymore…That’s the interesting part.
Finding meaning after losing everything.

And now they are stuck together, having gone through all these changes, unmoored by the other's action, then saved by them. That’s why forced #post-canon proximity is so compelling: you take two people bound by hatred and explore how long it takes for their biases to crumble.

Joel butchered dozens of people to save her. Abby tracked and killed him. Ellie killed Abby's friends and had to confront her own violence, then her own selfishness by going after her instead of staying with her family. If she lets Abby go, then this will have been for nothing.

Ellie, as we know, is not a psychopath; her violence isn’t for fun. She’s shaken by Abby’s state and only realizes last-minute that sparing her means all of this was for nothing-the one thing Ellie can’t accept. She desperately wants all of this to have been for something.

But I don’t think she waited for Abby to set Lev on the boat to act. She followed because she had no idea what to do next. She traveled for months to avenge Joel, only to confront the reality that Abby isn’t the monster she imagined-just a human who suffers like everyone else.

Yet Ellie’s violence also shows she’ll slaughter those outside her tribe without hesitation. Abby also witnesses what she thinks is Ellie’s mercy (she's cuts down). That's why she says "there are boats". She’s offering an olive branch, thinking Ellie extended one first. (oops)

Also, Abby knows Ellie isn’t a heartless monster. Yes, Ellie murdered all of her friends, but she also confessed and basically sacrificed herself to save Tommy, which is proof she operates by a code. Militia logic dictates that codes matter.

Abby stuck with Lev, who's a kid and therefore a "burden" (which Ellie tells Dina point blank), and THEN LEFT THEM. I think unconsciously this is a big blow to Ellie who can't help be see the ways Abby did "better" than her.

Ellie knows Abby is not as ruthless as the act of killing Joel made her seem: Lev’s stayed with her for over a year, and Abby clearly cares for him deeply. This likely also sends Ellie back to her failure as a "mom".

This also means Ellie realizes Abby has changed. The woman who brutalized Joel with a golf club (yet spared her and Tommy) is now restrained by Lev’s influence (re: theatre scene, where he stops her from killing Dina by calling out her name).

12/22 #ellabs canon

Ellie's desperate for either death or something new to care about. She’d never bend for Abby, but Lev-an innocent kid who showed her mercy (stopping Abby from killing her and Dina)-could make her stick around. She also feels gratitude; without Lev, she and Dina would be dead.

(Dina broke up with her, there's no going back to a happy family. Dina tells her she's not doing this again, which is funny bc it's also what Abby says at the beach. Ellie's quest for revenge lasts longer than everyone else's in the game. She is the LAST one to change)

We know this shift is possible because we've literally just seen it happen: Abby abandoned her loyalty to the WLF to help the Seraphite kids, despite owing Isaac everything. We also know Ellie is now utterly alone.
